We think this decision was the right move for the bank and our customers.”

For more than 112 years, Calhoun County Bank has been serving the people and businesses of Calhoun County, West Virginia. With assets exceeding $116 million, Calhoun County Bank has expanded into neighboring counties. The bank was seeking to replace its existing core processing solution with one that provided effective integration for optimizing key processes.

By streamlining and simplifying processes, the bank will have the ability to provide fast and accurate customer service. Exceptional integration will ensure all customer information is readily available. As part of this agreement, Calhoun County Bank will also deploy FIS’ Document Management and TellerElite solutions.
